In hot markets full of multiple offers buyers are often tempted to do anything to get a home. One thing they should not do is forgo the home inspection. The DiMora team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and we know that for buyers, waiving the option to have a professional inspection contingent on their offer to purchase a home can have major repercussions in the long run. Sellers tend to like these offers because it essentially means they are selling the home ‘as is’ and are not responsible for any thing that is not immediately visible. The buyer essentially loses the right to make any requests for additional repairs that aren’t agreed to at the time of signing the initial purchase contract.

The bottom line is that waiving the inspection contingency is rarely worth the risk, particularly because it doesn’t guarantee a price discount in a strong market. A home inspection provides an extra level of security and helps you plan for the future in your new home.
